Show HN: Replace Your macOS Dock

https://www.flowylabs.ai

If you're familiar with Streamdeck, this is a similar but simpler alternative built for work, and free (ad-supported). Essentially, it allows you to use your iPad for shortcuts on your mac. The extra real-estate is quite nice for people who have a desk setup with monitor and other peripherals.

I'm posting this because I completed a new project which lets people declaratively define all of the "key" that show up in their app, via YAML. This allows you to specify when particular shortcuts show depending on which app or website you're in (e.g. create specific shortcuts for Gmail, Neovim, Linear, Notion, etc). Nix fans will appreciate this. However, I'd like feedback on this overall approach and experience, so please hit me in the comments!

Check out our docs for more information on this. Go to https://flowylabs.ai and then "Docs" for more technical details. I call this "programming your keypad" which allows people to configure every inch of their macro-pad.

Really like the declarative approach, defining keys via YAML feels much cleaner than tapping around a UI. ‘Programming your keypad’ is a cool concept. Love that the features aren't locked behind a paywall. Going to try this with my desk setup.
